QB Notes: It looks like Patrick Mahomes is off to a sluggish begin, and but, he’s the QB5 by common factors. Forward of him, Russell Wilson is on bye and Dak Prescott (ankle) is finished for the season. Mahomes is lacking Sammy Watkins (hamstring) for Week 6, however the well-rested Chiefs might be going through a short-week’d and injury-depleted Payments Protection. The Payments are quietly permitting the league’s 24th most passing yards. … An inconsistent Kyler Murray wanted to place an enormous day on movie vs. the laughingstock Jets. He responded with a career-high 380 passing yards and yet one more speeding rating. Maybe the Cowboys will discover themselves in fewer shootouts with Dak Prescott on the shelf, however Huge D stays a inexperienced mild matchup for enemy quarterbacks. … Josh Allen had his first dangerous 2020 begin vs. the Titans, delivering his first two-INT efficiency whereas posting season lows in completion share (63.4) and yards per try (6.4). The Chiefs aren’t any joke of a move protection, however the projected scoring setting (57.5) retains Allen locked into the highest three. … Heating up, Deshaun Watson will get a Titans Protection that should go from padding up 2-Three complete instances in three weeks to enjoying two video games in six days. Watson is averaging almost 9 yards per try.
We all know a variety of it’s recreation circulation, however Lamar Jackson is averaging simply 169 yards passing since his explosive Week 1, producing 6.13 yards per try. He’s discovered the top zone on the bottom just one time all season, rendering him the QB17 by common factors. We’re going to must see extra towards an Eagles Protection that might be lacking Darius Slay (concussion), however the preliminary line of BAL -7.5 suggests one other contest the place Jackson received’t must throw a lot within the second half. … Laying waste to all the pieces in his path to date this season, Aaron Rodgers comes off bye to his hardest matchup of 2020 within the Bucs. He might be doing so with Davante Adams (ankle) again within the fold. Rodgers has but to common fewer than 8.Zero yards per try in a recreation. … COVID-19 value Cam Newton a possible shootout within the Chiefs, although he returns from the lazaretto because the QB7 by common factors. The Broncos have solely performed 4 video games and they’re nonetheless tied for eighth in QB speeding yards allowed (96). Certain, it’s largely attributable to one run from Sam Darnold, but when Darnold can try this, what can Cam accomplish?
The QB11 by common factors by 5 video games — learn, an precise pattern dimension — Gamblin’* Gardner Minshew (*Minshew is definitely fairly conservative) will get a Lions “protection” that’s settled down a bit in current weeks however nonetheless lacks the personnel to sluggish passing assaults. … First it was Kenny Golladay lacking time, now it’s Adrian Peterson incomes a “dedication” within the Lions’ backfield. We’ve but to see 2019 Matthew Stafford this season. Hopefully a Jaguars Protection with accidents at each degree brings it out of him in a recreation with a 54.5 over/underneath. The Jags are coughing up 8.Eight yards per try. … The QB12 by common factors, Ryan Fitzpatrick has turned in three large days and two duds. Hilariously, Fitz is fifth in quarterback speeding (131). Perhaps this may lastly be the week the Jets get Adam Gase fired. … Did Ben Roethlisberger simply uncover a nuclear weapon in his receiver corps? Chase Claypool’s fast emergence once more ensures Ben one of many league’s finest receiver teams. Solely the Seahawks and Falcons are allowing extra weekly passing yards than Cleveland. … Ryan Tannehill is again on his you realize what, producing three scores on 28 makes an attempt towards the Payments. His big-play effectivity is primed to interrupt the bending Texans.
Andy Dalton is a league-average participant who has historically recognized what to do with weapons. He has by no means had as many as he does now. Of Week 6 concern is a Cardinals Protection quietly permitting the fifth fewest passing yards. … With one rating in his previous three video games, Matt Ryan has been doing his finest Daniel Jones impression. Maybe he might be buoyed by Dan Quinn’s firing, however Julio Jones’ (hamstring) continued limbo renders Ryan a dangerous QB1 even for an above-average matchup within the Vikings. … Predictably, Kirk Cousins lastly needed to clear 30 makes an attempt towards the Seahawks. The Falcons are one other shootout spot, however four-point favorites at dwelling vs. a horrible run protection, the Vikes will ground-and-pound even with out Dalvin Cook dinner. … Tom Brady badly, badly wants Chris Godwin (hamstring) to return. He can’t preserve funneling six targets to the Tyler Johnsons of the world. The Packers are surrendering a 72.2 completion share and eight.1 YPA. Godwin’s well being will decide Brady’s remaining rank. … The 49ers’ injury-ravaged protection simply made Ryan Fitzpatrick appear like Lamar Jackson. Even when half of Jared Goff’s makes an attempt are behind the road of scrimmage, he may have little bother posting top-18 numbers.
Teddy Bridgewater has a pathological aversion to throwing for greater than two touchdowns. It’s not going to occur towards the Bears. … Regardless of how dangerous his eye take a look at has been, Carson Wentz is the QB16 by common factors thanks partially to a few speeding scores. Maybe settling into his B-team supporting solid like he did in 2019, Wentz is nonetheless set as much as fail vs. the Ravens’ imposing protection. … Joe Burrow was flat out horrible vs. the Ravens on Sunday. Though helped by a smooth schedule, the Colts are allowing by far the fewest quarterback fantasy factors. Burrow’s flooring is larger than final week urged, however there’s little room for Week 6 ceiling. … No matter went on with Kyle Allen final week, it shouldn’t occur once more. Really feel-good story that he was, Alex Smith didn’t appear like he belonged on an NFL area. … The QB28 by common factors, Baker Mayfield will keep down vs. the Steelers. … As dangerous as humanly attainable earlier than his Week 5 benching, Jimmy Garoppolo no less than averted aggravations along with his troublesome ankle. He might be higher, but it surely’s in all probability not going to occur towards Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey.

Week 6 Operating Backs
RB Notes: The Cowboys’ burden is again on Ezekiel Elliott’s shoulders following Dak Prescott’s season-ending ankle damage. Though he has but to have a 100-yard recreation on the bottom, Zeke has cleared 100 yards from scrimmage in 4-of-5 contests. Amongst energetic Week 6 backs, solely Aaron Jones is averaging extra weekly half-PPR factors. … Derrick Henry dealt with a “season-low” 19 carries even because the Titans boat raced the Payments on Tuesday night. Averaging 27 weekly touches, Henry has nonetheless but to have “the massive one.” The Texans’ sieve-like run protection — 160 yards per recreation — presents a golden alternative. … Alexander Mattison seamlessly slid in for 23 touches after Dalvin Cook dinner got here up gimpy within the third quarter of Sunday’s loss to the Seahawks. He turned them into 136 yards, with the majority of that coming within the two quarters Cook dinner missed. Unhealthy towards all the pieces, the Falcons are significantly weak to working again receptions. That safeguards Mattison’s flooring and boosts his ceiling. … The Bucs’ league-best run protection might be adjusting to life with out Vita Vea vs. Aaron Jones. Vea’s absence is a large loss for the Bucs for a contest the place they discover themselves as one-point dwelling underdogs in a recreation with a 55 over/underneath. Jones’ 25 touchdowns because the begin of final season are two greater than some other participant.
Kareem Hunt posted a “disappointing” 93 yards from scrimmage towards the Colts, however his utilization was there. Hunt’s 23 touches had been his most since Week 5 2018. The Steelers are one other brutal matchup. We’re trusting in Hunt’s expertise and function. … Mike Davis’ 30 receptions are tied for third in soccer since Christian McCaffrey (high-ankle sprain) went down. He’s the RB3 by complete half-PPR factors over the previous three weeks. … Run-game circulation was not good for James Robinson vs. the Texans, however he compensated with no less than 4 catches for the third straight recreation. The Lions don’t permit many working again receptions … as a result of they’ve been allowing by far essentially the most speeding yardage. Robinson’s function and workload are each safe. … Joe Mixon has dealt with 30-plus touches whereas catching six passes every of the previous two weeks. In Week 4, he ate. In Week 5, he was sacrificed to save lots of Joe Burrow. Hopefully he can cut up the distinction vs. a Colts D that may doubtless be lacking Darius Leonard (groin) for the second consecutive week. … Amongst working backs really enjoying in Week 6, Todd Gurley is the RB11 by common factors in half-PPR leagues. There’s no legislation that claims it’s a must to prefer it. This week’s 54.5 over/underneath helps.
Leonard Fournette (ankle) might be again. Does it matter for Ronald Jones, who led the league in speeding (217) throughout Fournette’s two-game absence? The Packers are allowing the second most working again fantasy factors. … Jonathan Taylor is averaging 72 yards from scrimmage since his seemingly star-making, 28-touch flip in Week 2. We have to see it towards a Bengals Protection hemorrhaging 5.2 yards per carry and 159 speeding yards per recreation. If we don’t, Taylor will not obtain RB1 good thing about the doubt. … Raheem Mostert has 182 yards speeding on 19 carries over his previous two video games. Even after final week’s catastrophe, the Niners are modest 3.5-point dwelling ‘canines to the Rams. … Working on additional relaxation, Devin Singletary Week 5 face planted regardless of Zack Moss’ (toe) shock absence. The place to get the Chiefs is on the bottom, however recreation script might be a problem for the Payments after the Titans dominated it on Tuesday. … Miles Sanders scored a 74-yard landing within the first quarter towards the Steelers and completed with 80 yards speeding. Appears exhausting to do. Sanders’ workloads have fallen again over the previous two weeks after two video games of matchup-proof utilization. As Joe Mixon simply discovered, the Ravens are as robust because it will get on the bottom.
Week 5 towards the Raiders was a take a look at Clyde Edwards-Helaire wanted to move. As an alternative, he failed. Averaging 52 yards speeding since Week 1, CEH’s weekly 4/42 as a move catcher isn’t fairly sufficient to bridge the RB1 distinction, particularly since he appears to be ineffective as a goal-line again. All that being stated, fantasy managers can nonetheless rely on eventual eruptions on this offense. … The Dolphins have been happy sufficient with Myles Gaskin’s play that they’ve made Jordan Howard a wholesome scratch. Gaskin transformed a Week 5 goal-line carry. There must be extra vs. the howlingly-bad Jets. … David Montgomery has spectacularly failed each the attention and field rating checks the previous two weeks. Hopefully his elevated receiving utilization lastly pays off in fantasy vs. the Panthers’ bottom-basement run D. … A 31-yard rubbish time run made David Johnson’s Week 5 his finest effort because the opener. A Titans Protection silver plattering a league-worst 5.5 yards per carry will hopefully preserve the occasion going for Week 6. … Antonio Gibson has a toe damage however is getting in restricted practices. Scared-rabbit Alex Smith checkdowns as soon as once more made J.D. McKissic a going concern in Washington’s Week 5 backfield. With Kyle Allen again underneath middle, hopefully Gibson can decide up on the modest weekly progress he was making underneath Dwayne Haskins. .. Jerick McKinnon touched the ball thrice in Raheem Mostert’s Week 5 return. Yep.
That is unlikely to be Melvin Gordon’s remaining rankings resting place following his DUI arrest. If we get no additional remark from coach Vic Fangio, nonetheless, it stands to motive Gordon could solely be “suspended” for a collection or two vs. the Patriots. Phillip Lindsay is on the PPR FLEX radar. … Kenyan Drake lastly scored in his third straight smash spot, however there isn’t any longer daylight between him and Chase Edmonds. With Drake failing to supply large performs or a receiving menace, Edmonds is entering into the void to offer each. … Devonta Freeman is “taking management” of the Giants’ backfield, no matter meaning at this level. … Keep in mind Damien Harris? It is going to have been almost two weeks since his spectacular 2020 debut towards the Chiefs when he takes the sphere vs. the Broncos. I’m betting on that efficiency — admittedly a pure guess — on the RB2/Three borderline. … James White caught seven passes in his Week Four return. He’s retaking his rightful place in his ancestral RB 24-30 homeland. … The Rams’ backfield has totally devolved. If I had been coach Sean McVay, I might be sure that Darrell Henderson sees 15-18 touches once more. I’ve no clue if this may occur. I simply assume he’s the Rams’ finest again. … Mark Ingram’s 11 Week 5 carries had been essentially the most by any Ravens again this season. Yikes. … C.D. Carter lays out the explanations we must always have some Week 6 religion in D’Andre Swift.
Week 6 Receivers
WR Notes: On a heater, Adam Thielen will keep scorching vs. what may simply be the worst rattling protection within the league within the Falcons. … DeAndre Hopkins shook off his Week Four ankle damage to tough up the Jets. With Dak Prescott (ankle) on the shelf, the Cowboys could not be a perpetual-shootout machine, however Hopkins will get his vs. a protection coughing up the third most receiver fantasy factors. … Mike Zimmer had the Vikings’ move protection fastened for a couple of half. Then DK Metcalf took over. With Julio Jones (hamstring) wanting uncertain for Week 6, Calvin Ridley ought to as soon as once more soar previous 10 targets. … Davante Adams (hamstring) may have performed in Week 4. Now he’s nicely and really rested following the Packers’ Week 5 bye. A battle with Carlton Davis awaits. The targets are coming both approach. … My summer time intuition was that Stefon Diggs could be a highly-volatile WR2. The autumn actuality has been a locked-in WR1, with flooring to match his ceiling. It’s value noting that the Chiefs are allowing the fourth fewest receiver fantasy factors. … A.J. Brown took benefit of Tre’Davious White’s (again) Week 5 absence. Tyreek Hill would like to do the identical factor.
The Panthers are doing all the pieces they will to maintain opposing passing assaults beneath. That fits the Bears simply high quality. Allen Robinson has reached 9 targets in 5-of-5 contests, clearing 90 yards every of the previous three weeks. … No extra Mr. Good Kenny Golladay? 100 % wholesome coming off the Lions’ bye, Golladay might be going through a Jaguars Protection with vital accidents at each degree. The Lions are three-point highway favorites for a tilt with a 54.5 over/underneath. … Coming off his first quiet effort, Amari Cooper might be adjusting to life with Andy Dalton. No matter your criticisms of Dalton, he’s all the time gotten his stars their numbers. … Energy ahead Mike Evans retains changing his dunks. The Packers have fairly the rim protector in Jaire Alexander, so Tom Brady’s alley oops should be on level. … Behind Evans, the Bucs may lastly be getting Chris Godwin (hamstring) again. The Bucs’ Nos. 3-5 receivers haven’t precisely been choosing up Godwin’s slack. Even with the damage uncertainty, Godwin would instantly slot again into the WR12-14 vary. … With 31 % of the season within the books, Robby Anderson is fourth in receiving (489). He’s completed under six catches and 99 yards as soon as. The Bears hand out the second fewest wideout fantasy factors, however Anderson instructions rankings respect.
No matter Washington did final week, let’s hope they don’t do it once more vs. the undermanned Giants. Extra settled quarterback play and a greater matchup ought to return Terry McLaurin to his rightful WR1 manufacturing. … Will Fuller will sometimes lose you every week, however he’s a wideout able to single-handedly successful them. The Titans are someplace in between as a matchup. … DeVante Parker acquired to pack it in early vs. the 49ers. The Jets are pretty much as good of a matchup. Count on Parker to bounce again to 5-6 receptions with week-winning upside. … Jamison Crowder is the Jets’ whole offense. 7/104 each day trip, Crowder has discovered the top zone in 2-of-Three appearances. … I must double test this, however I feel the 49ers’ Nos. 1-7 cornerbacks are injured. Quantity will stay an issue for Cooper Kupp and Robert Woods within the Rams’ conservative offense. This week’s matchup just isn’t. … A.J. Brown returned in type vs. the Payments. The Texans’ move protection has bent sufficient that it ought to quickly break. … Air yards are cool. Targets are higher. D.J. Moore wants extra of the latter behind new No. 1 Robby Anderson.
We all know all the pieces has modified for the Cowboys’ offense. We must always nonetheless count on Andy Dalton to funnel seems CeeDee Lamb’s approach within the slot. It’s beautiful deep menace Michael Gallup who takes the largest hit in Dak Prescott’s absence. Gallup’s week-winning upside nonetheless retains him within the prime 36. … Marquise Brown feels so near exploding and successful a matchup. Would possibly Darius Slay’s concussion lastly be what does it? Lamar Jackson has to cease lacking his pace demon on wide-open touchdowns. … Odell Beckham is protecting his flooring tidy. Other than his Week Four rushing-fueled explosion, the identical just isn’t true of his ceiling. … The Colts are one other robust matchup for Tyler Boyd. Joe Burrow’s slot man has managed to catch no less than 4 passes each week. … Even when Diontae Johnson (again) misses Week 6, it received’t all of a sudden return JuJu Smith-Schuster to top-18 standing. JuJu’s averaged supposed air yards are a miniscule 5.1, the third lowest within the league through NextGenStats. He’s grow to be a glorified chain mover for Ben Roethlisberger’s diminished arm. Chase Claypool, in the meantime, instructions discover as a WR2 even when it screams “chasing factors.” If somebody goes 7/110/3 (plus a speeding rating, PLUS a 42-yarder known as again by ticky-tack OPI), you chase. The Browns battle to police the slot, giving JuJu a small rankings edge.
Justin Jefferson’s targets stay restricted sufficient that he’s a WR2 gamble. The excellent news, you may have monster days towards the Falcons on solely 4-5 seems. … Julian Edelman is getting again Cam Newton. Week 2’s deep utilization appears unlikely to observe. . … The reality is, even with Sammy Watkins (hamstring) sidelined, Mecole Hardman’s flooring stays low. You merely must get his elevated ceiling odds into your lineup. … It in all probability received’t be towards the Colts’ elite protection, however Tee Higgins goes to have an enormous recreation considered one of these Sundays. … T.Y. Hilton has known as out for squeaky wheel therapy. We are going to see if Philip Rivers’ arm remains to be able to making use of the grease. … It’s been higher late than by no means for Laviska Shenault’s fantasy emergence. With D.J. Chark (ankle) as soon as once more damage, Shenault may really money in his A+ matchup with the Lions after his fantasy-famous Week Three catastrophe vs. the Dolphins. … Higher late than by no means additionally applies to Brandin Cooks’ Week 5 eruption. We’ve been down this highway sufficient instances, although, to know there isn’t any such factor as “momentum” with the Texans’ No. 2 wideout. … Preston Williams got here again to life actually instantly after I stated he was not WR3 viable. The Jets will do all they will to get a scorching streak going. … If somebody catches 10 passes for a crew with no wideouts, you give them a gander. If solely Travis Fulgham’s matchup (vs. BAL) had been higher.
Week 6 Tight Ends
TE Notes: George Kittle’s 15/183/1 Week Four explosion has been sandwiched by a pair of 4/44 efforts. Particularly with the 49ers’ quarterbacks enjoying poorly, Week 6 in all probability received’t be a ceiling day vs. the Rams’ stout seam protection. … Mark Andrews has but to succeed in 60 yards, however he’s coming off season highs in catches (six) and targets (9). Andrews has continued to seek out the top zone, doing so 5 instances in 5 video games. … Now as much as TE3 standing by common factors in half PPR leagues, Jonnu Smith has been doing fairly the Andrews impression. One of many solely members of this yr’s “upside” tight finish group to really dwell as much as the hype, Smith is a top-five possibility till additional discover. … Proper behind Smith is Robert Tonyan, who has banged down the TE1 door with 5 touchdowns in three video games. That features three in Week 4, in addition to back-to-back 50-yard efforts. At the same time as Davante Adams (ankle) returns for Week 6, Allen Lazard sits. Tonyan’s area of interest within the Packers’ offense shouldn’t be a passing fancy.
Is Zach Ertz washed? His 0.72 yards per route run rank 38th amongst tight ends. It’s almost two yards lower than Kittle and Jonnu, as an example. With Dallas Goedert (ankle) having an outdoor shot at returning this week, Ertz might be a pitcher. With damage uncertainty, Goedert would stay a low-end TE1. … Mike Gesicki has had two blowups and three invisibility cloaks. He may have respectable odds of the previous vs. the accidentally-tanking Jets. … T.J. Hockenson has season highs of 5 catches and 62 yards. One way or the other, that’s good for TE10 by common factors standing in half-PPR leagues. That sort of yr. Week 6 opponent Jacksonville is coughing up the eighth most seam factors. … Pathetically, three straight 40-yard efforts put Eric Ebron within the TE1 combine. The Browns are allowing the sixth most TE fantasy factors. … Even with Julio Jones (hamstring), Hayden Hurst hasn’t been getting it finished. Not compiling — he’s completed underneath 10 yards in 2-of-Three video games — Hurst wants an enormous play or landing to pay any dividends in any respect.
Evan Engram has been all utilization and no manufacturing. That’s nonetheless extra to go on than we have now with many tight ends. The WFT is handing out the fifth most tight finish fantasy factors. You’ll assume in some unspecified time in the future Engram will fall into the top zone. … Neither the Cardinals or Panthers are gifting their common fantasy factors up the seam. I’ll give Jimmy Graham the Week 6 rankings benefit over Dalton Schultz. Graham is drawing constant sufficient pink zone utilization. Schultz, in the meantime, is now the No. 5 passing recreation possibility for a quarterback in Andy Dalton who by no means actually set the seam ablaze in Cincinnati. (Though that might be blamed on Tyler Eifert’s damage historical past.) … With 17 targets in his previous two video games, Austin Hooper is all of a sudden again within the low-end TE1 combine. … Tyler Higbee is averaging three targets and 33 yards. Gerald Everett’s Week 5 was far greater than any 2020 Higbee effort. … Simply as Rob Gronkowski barely revives, Cameron Brate has entered the image to steal targets. … For no matter motive, the Colts wish to characteristic Trey Burton over Mo Alie-Cox, who leads all tight ends in yards per route run by a large margin. Life isn’t honest.
